Georg Fischer 829-628FB Sch 80 Pvc Reducing Coupling 10x8 in

Product Description

The GEORG FISCHER 829-628FB is a Schedule 80 PVC bushed reducing coupling designed to transition between 10-inch and 8-inch pipe in socket-by-socket (SxS) configurations. Manufactured from rigid PVC, this coupling delivers the wall thickness and pressure ratings required for demanding industrial and commercial plumbing applications. At 15.75 pounds and 11.45 inches in length, it is built for permanent installations where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are priorities. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on process piping, irrigation headers, and large-diameter plumbing systems rely on this type of fitting for clean, pressure-rated reductions without the need for additional adapters.

This reducing coupling is suited for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems in commercial, industrial, and heavy-duty residential applications. The bushed design allows a 10-inch main line to step down to an 8-inch branch or continuation run using solvent-cement socket connections on both ends. Typical install scenarios include water distribution headers, chemical handling systems, irrigation manifolds, and industrial process lines where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified by design or code.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction provides greater wall thickness and higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40
• Bushed reducing design transitions a 10-inch socket to an 8-inch socket in a single fitting
• Socket-by-socket (SxS) end configuration for standard solvent-cement installation
• PVC material offers broad chemical resistance and corrosion-free service life
• 11.45-inch overall length accommodates standard fitting allowances in large-diameter runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 10-inch and 8-inch nominal pipe sizes with solvent-cement socket connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or locally adopted equivalents. Depressurize and drain the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Use a PVC-compatible primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 fittings, and allow full cure time before returning the system to service. Do not apply heat or mechanical force to seat socket connections.
